The public hearing was called to order at 9:03 AM by the Hon. David Eady, Mayor.  Mayor Eady stated that the City is proposing the same millage rate as the previous three years.  The City’s revenue is just beginning to trend back toward its 2007 level but is not there yet.  Maintaining the millage rate of 6.62 will help keep the City moving toward that level and will help offset revenue reductions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Mayor Eady called for comments regarding the millage rate proposal.  No comments were made.

Jeff Wearing made a motion to adjourn the public hearing at 9:10 a.m.  Avis Williams seconded the motion.  The motion carried unanimously (5/0).


Respectfully Submitted,


Marcia Brooks
City Clerk/Treasurer
